Default my new rear feels like its gunna fall out??

My new m9 with adj. umi torque arm was hitting the floor board. I fixed that! When driving at any speeds and hitting bumps, it hits so hard in the rear im suprised my rear hatch glass hasent shattered.. ive got new kybs and all the bolts are tight...torque arm, control arms, shocks, sway bars. all tight. my control arm angles are perfect. flat with the ground.. so tell me why my 9in is riding like dog sh*t. again everything is tight..

Have you checked to see if the rear suspension cycles properly? I don't know why it wouldn't off hand but it sounds like it's binding...

is your pinion angle adjusted correctly??? i had a problem when i first installed my BMR with the arm hitting tunnel and it was way to high of a pinion and since the spring perch is on the back it cause the car to be lower.

Is your torque arm adjustable? Like the post above, check your pinion angle.

I agree with the other post, I would check your torque arm angle. I would also jack up the rear end and place jack stands under the Moser 9 inch, so the weight is on the rear. Then check all clearances around the torque arm bracket and the floor sheetmetal. If it is hitting it can cause the car to ride very rough. I know you said you already clearanced the rear in one location, but check it all out. Bob

I went back to my stock control arms and panhard bar + fabbed a rubber bushing for my torque arm. Feels a ton better now and I'll still run a 9 eventually.

I was going to say the bushings man.. I have the same problem. What kinda LCA are you running adj drag ones or the one for street/drag? Im running the straght drag ones, and there is no bushings to help with the ride so feels like crap over bumps.
